Title: Method and device for low-emission storage of biodegradable matter
Inventor: CARRA ROLAND
IPC: C02F3/00
Filed: 2004-10-19
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for low-emission storage of biologically-degradable materials by means of ventilation without establishment of aerobic conditions in the material. The storage permits a more constant charging of the subsequent method steps. Methane formation is suppressed by means of the ventilation and the potential risk of formation of an explosive gas mixture in the storage container (2), or in the plant components transporting emissions, reduced. The control of the ventilation matches the ventilation rate to the biological activity in the stored material and minimises the air input to minimise the loss of methane build-up by aerobic material conversion and also the energy requirement for ventilation.  The method is characterized in that by control of the ventilation of the storage container (2) a significant methane gas build-up is prevented.

Title: Improvements in or relating to tickets
Inventor: FORGIONE FRANK
IPC: G09F3/02
Filed: 2005-07-21
Abstract: The present invention relates to tickets for events, and in particular to a method for fulfilling a ticket order from a customer and to an integrated ticket and ticket-carrier. The method for fulfilling a ticket order includes the steps of receiving ticket data from or relating to a customer and electronically providing the ticket data to a ticket service provider to produce a ticket in accordance with the ticket data and introduce the ticket into a postal or similar delivery system for delivery to the customer. Such a method has the result of separating the ticket production and distribution functions from the ticket originating function. The integrated ticket and ticket carrier includes a foldable sheet having an arrangement of perforations or other frangible elements defining at least one ticket area that is readily removable from the sheet. This avoids the need for a separate ticket wallet, and allows minimal stock types to be used to provide unlimited quantities and varieties of tickets.

IPC: H04W4/14
Filed: 2006-01-27
Abstract: A method and apparatus for interworking between push-to-talk over cellular (PoC) systems and instant messagaing (IM) systems is provided. An interworking entity that behaves like a PoC client to a PoC server and as an IM client to the IM server is provided.

Patent CA-2599341-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KIM JUNG-WON
IPC: H04W16/02
Filed: 2006-04-28
Abstract: Provided is a device and method for scheduling uplink resources in a wireless communication system supporting VoIP . When its data rate is decreased, an MS  notifies a BS of the rate decreased. When increasing its data rate, the MS  requests resource allocation to the BS by transmitting a BR header or a CQICH  codeword. Compared to the conventional ertPS in which the BS periodically allocates uplink resources to the MS irrespective of the state of the MS, the BS does not allocate uplink resources when the MS transitions form a talk-spurt period to a silence period. Therefore, resources consumption arising from unnecessary bandwidth allocation is reduced.

Inventor: EULER DAVID E
IPC: A61N1/362
Filed: 2006-03-23
Abstract: A method of evaluating ventricular performance of a heart employing sensors to measure a ventricular dimension signal and deriving indices of ventricular performance therefrom. Premature Shortening (PS) and Isovolumic Lengthening (IL) comprise two indices of ventricular performance determined from analysis of the left ventricular dimension signal during the transition from ventricular filling to ventricular ejection. Measured values of PS and IL are compared to other measured values or reference values to determine if ventricular performance has improved (or worsened). In some embodiments, the dimension sensors may comprise piezoelectric sonomicrometer crystals that operate as ultrasound transmitters and receivers. The sensors may be mounted in relation to a ventricle of the heart either temporarily or permanently, and may be configured either separately from or integrally with cardiac pacing leads.

Title: Receiver for wireless communication network with extended range
Inventor: WALLACE MARK S
IPC: H04B1/69
Filed: 2006-05-24
Abstract: Techniques for detecting and demodulating a signal/transmission are described.  Signal detection is performed in multiple stages using different types of signal processing, e.g., using time-domain correlation for a first stage, frequency-domain processing for a second stage, and time-domain processing for a third stage. For the first stage, products of symbols are generated for at least two different delays, correlation between the products for each delay and known values is performed, and correlation results for all delays are combined and used to declare the presence of a signal. For demodulation, the timing of input samples is adjusted to obtain timing-adjusted samples. A  frequency offset is estimated and removed from the timing-adjusted samples to obtain frequency-corrected samples, which are processed with a channel estimate to obtain detected symbols. The phases of the detected symbols are corrected to obtain phase-corrected symbols, which are demodulated, deinterleaved, and decoded.
